My Little Cosy Box

As soon as I discovered the theme of this month's My Little Box I was extremely excited to see what was in store. If you know me, you'll know that I don't like anything about Winter apart from the ability to be cosy.

Once again my box arrived perfectly packaged on my doorstep, all tied up with a bow.

It may be sad, but my favourite thing about these boxes are the quoted cards you get at the front of each one. They are always so pretty and I have started building up a small collection on my desk.

Of course there was the obligatory copy of My Little World magazine.

Below which rested a few little lifestyle goodies. I was a bit worried at first that I'd been sent coffee, something I absolutely loathe.

But what was actually inside was something far sweeter.

A mini mug with a cute illustration on the side. This will sound weird, but I absolutely love mini hot chocolates, as a full one can really bloat me. So there will be no doubt that I will be getting this out when I'm in need of a chocolate fix.

On the side is the phrase "How is your day gonna be?"

And if you're not sure, you'll know the answer by the time you've finished your drink.

The next lifestyle product was a cute little pillow which can be popped into the microwave to be heated up in the colder months. I haven't used one of these for a while but I will definitely be using this inside my coat when I walk to uni from now on!

The beauty products included this month were a My Little Beauty Volume and Care Mascara, an Essie Mini Nail Polish in 'Cute As A Button' and an Arancil Starliner Black Waterproof Eyeliner.

Once again I'm super happy with the choice of beauty products, especially with the Essie nail polish. I've always wanted to try one of them before and the shade is gorgeous and so me.

I usually don't wear pencil eyeliner because I have trouble getting it to show up on my wrinkly eyelids, but this one is super soft and really pigmented.

Finally, the mascara looks really nice and I'm happy that it's focused on volume as that's where I have trouble.

November's Box really stood out for me and is probably up there as my favourite one so far, just surpassing My Little Parisienne Box. If you want to purchase your own box, be sure to head on over to the My Little Box website where you can subscribe for only £11 a month + P&P. It's pretty much the best box on the market at the moment, in my opinion.
